The Demonrat dream of a literal dark age is still alive and well in the most developed country on earth.

Where is it happening? Western countries stopped building nuclear years ago.

And...contrary to wind and solar, almost all of the nuclear power capacity coming on line will actually put electricity on the grid.

[Reeses]

After the energy crisis of 2022, many governments – with the notable exception of Germany – have opted to boost its nuclear power generation to ensure energy security and reduce emissions from electricity generation as they aim to reach net-zero emissions by 2050.

It would take a 300-page book to go over everything wrong in that one sentence. The most disturbing idea is that government should fund or operate any nuclear power plant. The most energy-inefficient, most secretive, most violent, most lying, most political sector of the economy should not be anywhere near a nuclear power plant. Frighteningly, the biggest investor in nuclear these days is socialist government. There is no way that can end well.

I told a lib I would buy an electric car as soon as every state has as many nuclear power plants as France.

Here in GA we just fired up one new large nuclear plant, and its twin should start commercial generation shortly.

In a sea of bad news, I find this encouraging.

[ByteMercenary]

Many countries on this planet are starting to realize that the benefits of nuclear power (small footprint, 24x7 power generation, etc) far outstrip the capabilities of any green technology. And since they don’t have to deal with the massive anti-nuke bureaucracy that the USA has in our FedGov, they can get a nuke planned, built, and online in a few years instead of decades. They will be warm in winters and cool in summers while USA citizens are freezing or sweltering because of the astronomical cost of totally unreliable ‘green’ energy.

Many currently in our FedGov should swing for this situation.

I have no objection to nuclear.

Let’s remember though that plants need CO2 to survive, the more the better. Go green with CO2.

[Andy from Chapel Hill]

We need to replace about 100 old reactors in the USA.
Then, build 100 more.
And, at the same time, rebuild our grid to handle the load and to harden the grid against EMP and other attacks.

Cheaper than a war.

I am a huge fan of nuclear power, and natural gas as well.
